After 3 dire trips out to my wee tree seat .and after being knocked about left and right like a bloody squirrel at the top of a pine tree on day one with crazy winds i decided to abandon ship as it was impossible to take a steady shot if i had stayed and actually spotted anything . Then just to cheer me up i ended up being utterly saturated on day 2 by what felt like buckets of icy water dropping off the overhead branches when the cold wind picked up so bad my entire body was drenched and my legs were dancing all by themselves! .I swear my feet could have tap danced to a tune all by themselves if there had been music playing Now day 3 was better --as in no icy rain and --forecast said "mist". I arrived at my seat only to discover you could have parked an aircraft carrier 50 yards away and you wouldnt see it!!!! Thank you met office "mist" indeed grrrrr.
.Trip 4 for this dedicated (or foolish) hombre and --------- wait for it ---- wind ,yes, but manageable wind .-and no rain and definately no pea soup ---wohooooo!!!!! Sorted !
